It finally arrived
...Sue Bleiweiss's book The Sketchbook Challenge!!!! I have waited a whole year for this week! Sue approached my in early 2011 asking if I would be willing to take her word prompt and submit a sketch or two for her to consider for her book. Are you kidding me...HELL YA!!!! So I took the prompt and sent her two sketches...the prompt was Nature's Beauty...it has been hard not showing anyone this piece and keeping it under wraps until the release of her book:
